We are saddened to announce the passing of Sherida Linn (Woofter) Shoff on, Friday, December 2, 2022, at the age of 72, in Denver, Colorado.
Sherida was born on March 10, 1950, in Colby, Kansa, to Dale and Gladys (Shipley) Woofter. She graduated from Colby High School in 1968 and attended Colby Community College. Sherida married Dennis Shoff on November 10, 1972, in Colby, Kansas, and they had three beautiful daughters.
In her early years (1971-1977), Sherida worked at Farmers and Merchants Bank in Colby, Kansas, then provided at-home daycare in Goodland, Kansas, until her children were in school. In October 1984, she went to work full-time at First National Bank, Goodland, Kansas. She semi-retired from the bank in January 2022, but worked part-time until her health forced her full retirement in October 2022.
She was a wonderful daughter, wife, mom, sister, grandma and great-grandma who was always there when anyone needed her. She had many friends and was a well-loved member of the community. She loved to read, watch sports, cook, and most of all spend time with family. Some of her community engagements included Goodland Public Library Board, American Cancer Society Relay for Life, Community Dress Down Day, Sherman County Community Services, and Meals on Wheels.
